The Study of Greek Numerals, Ages 6-9

The Greek numeral system, used centuries ago, laid the foundation for the Roman numerals we encounter today. Studying Greek numbers isn’t just about learning an obsolete system; it’s about understanding the evolution of math and appreciating the intellectual achievements of ancient civilizations. This fosters a deeper connection to math, making it more than just equations and calculations.

Simple Machines, Ages 9-12

Simple machines that are basic devices that help accomplish physical tasks with few or no moving parts. Simple machines are basic devices that help accomplish physical tasks with few or no moving parts. The six most common simple machines are inclined plane, wedge, screw, lever, pulley and wheel and axle.

Newton’s Laws of Motion, Ages 6-12

Newton's Laws of Motion, Ages 6-12

The way objects move and interact with each other is a constant source of curiosity for young minds. Children naturally observe and question the forces at play, from bouncing balls to rolling cars. In the upper elementary Montessori classroom, we can guide this curiosity toward a deeper understanding of the world by introducing Newton’s laws of motion.

Napier’s Bones, Ages 10-12

The Napier’s Bones is a mathematical tool that dates back to the 17th century. Invented by the Scottish mathematician John Napier, it’s a clever set of rectangular rods nestled in a frame, and each divided into multiple squares. These strips, also named “bones,” were designed to simplify complex multiplication and division problems, making mathematical calculations more accessible and efficient. 

Pressure Variations, Ages 6-12

Pressure Variations, Ages 6-12

Learn more about our new material, Pressure Variations Puzzle – Complete Set. Atmospheric pressure is the force the air around us exerts on everything it touches. It may seem invisible, but it affects many aspects of our lives, such as the weather, the climate, and even how we breathe.

Landmarks of the World, Ages 9-12

Our Montessori material, “Landmarks of the World,” is a great way to introduce elementary learners to some of the most famous landmarks in the world. The material consists of two large charts, 88 movable pictures, and 88 research cards, which provide information about each landmark. 

Physical Changes in States of Matter, Ages 6-12

Physical changes in states of matter is a topic that falls under the branch of physical science known as chemistry. It focuses on understanding the different states of matter (solid, liquid, and gas) and how they can undergo changes without altering their chemical composition.  In the Montessori curriculum, chemistry is introduced through water, which is an excellent component to demonstrate many physical changes in matter, such as condensation, evaporation, deposition, freezing, boiling, and melting.

Types of Chemical Bonds, Ages 9-12

Everything around us is made up of tiny particles called atoms. Atoms are like the building blocks of matter. Chemical bonds are the forces that hold atoms together in a molecule or a compound. Like Lego blocks snap together to make a structure, atoms join together through chemical bonds to form different substances.

Parts of a Microscope, Ages 6-12

Parts of a Microscope, Ages 6-12- 13

In the Montessori method, science education holds a significant place as it encourages children to explore and understand the natural world. One essential tool in scientific exploration is the microscope, allowing students to investigate the microscopic world that lies beyond our naked eye. Therefore, we are excited to introduce our new puzzle, Parts of a Microscope, which unravels the intricacies of the microscope and its components.
